Are the Presidents starting to be Withdrawn?

4077 has been VOR for a while, hence why it has been put in reserve

The first one replaced 4077 now at Miller Street, currently AG has extra buses on fleet strength

I do hope they don't get rid of them quickly! My start date for NX is in a few weeks and I want to get a chance to drive one of the Presidents!

I started mine February and have been on the road a month now, to be honest at first you will be mounting curbs and its quite disheartening but you soon get used to the length and width. The brakes take a lot of getting used to because they're completely different to a car. You should be fine though, I failed my first test because I mistook a 20 limit on a side road for the road I was on so went too slow! If you fail on something silly then you should get a second chance.

Let me know if want to know anything else

Presuming YWs E400 MMCs enter service tomorrow there will have been 15 E200s and 29 E400s into service since March. It will be interesting to see which 44 vehicles are withdrawn or placed into strategic reserve as a result.

Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Can you not post this pointless crap please!

I'll delete it in a few hours but in the mean time it'll be left as an example to the other members.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.
